MoreWhich thrilling K-drama is worth binge-watching for beginners?
K-dramas are often synonymous with the romance genre thanks to hits like Goblin and Crash Landing on You, but there are so many other shows that fall under different categories. Squid Game, Kingdom, and Vincenzo are just a few of several thrilling K-dramas that are worth binge-watching. Which are your favorites?
No current show deserves another season more than 'Castlevania: Nocturne'
Castlevania: Nocturne?just premiered its second season, and it's better than anyone could've imagined. Reaching a new height in terms of narrative and animation,?Nocturne?Season 2 logically moves the story forward while delivering a more electrifying spectacle than ever before. Because there is no certainty of a third season, Nocturne ends its sophomore effort on a satisfying note that could function as a series finale in case Netflix decides not to move forward with another chapter. However, that would be a severe mistake on the streamer's part. Castlevania: Nocturne?has proven itself not only willing to grow and experiment but also capable of taking narrative risks without losing the striking animation that made it a hit in the first place. If any show deserves to continue telling its story, it's?Castlevania: Nocturne. What did you think of Season 2 of?Castlevania: Nocturne, and what would you like to see in Season 3?
Do you want a sequel to 'Alien: Romulus'
So, apparently?Fede ?lvarez and 20th Century are already working on another movie together in the Alien franchise — but we don't know yet if it's an actual sequel to?Alien: Romulus.?So, do you want a sequel with Rain and Andy returning? Look, I?really?liked?Cailee Spaeny in this and totally loved what David Jonsson was doing. They both gave us performances and characters we just haven't seen in this franchise — love them both. I was also into??lvarez' video-game-speedrun take on how to make an Alien movie. Oh, and the production design was perfect. That said, I kind of want Rain and Andy to just head off into the darkness and find their non-Wayland farming planet. I want him to get her that horse. I want them to chill. I'll see the sequel if they make it, but I'd like to imagine those characters as the only two heros to really get out of the Aliens franchise in one piece. Let's just leave them alone.?
What's Anya Taylor-Joy's best role (so far)?
There's no question: over the last few years Anya Taylor-Joy's been killing it. There's?The Witch,?The Northman, Furiosa,?The Queen's Gambit,?The Menu,?Last Night in Soho,?Emma, and one of my faves, the underrated and rarely talked about?Thoroughbreds. There's a whole bunch more I'm missing, too. Pretty good for someone who's been working for just over 10 years. But in all of that, what's her best role? For me, it's a tough choice between?The Witch,?Thoroughbreds, and?The Queen's Gambit. What's it for you?
What sad coming-of-age movie has made you cry?
Coming-of-age tales can be especially heartbreaking, with protagonists learning hard lessons as they grow up and change. Tearjerkers like Lady Bird, Moonlight, and Aftersun have a reputation for being among the saddest and most profound in the genre. What are some other coming-of-age movies to check out for viewers in the mood for some tears?
What's the best Horror Western ever?
While you can't call Horror Western a crowded field, it's a bit more populated than you know and getting more populated all the time. Bone Tomahawk, The Wind,?Bacurau, and?The Pale Door?have all come out in recent years and are either great, good, or enjoyable. A lot of people are going to look at this and think of?Near Dark, and that's fine. My take is that the best Horror Western as of this moment is?Ravenous, a dirty little film by?Antonia Bird with Guy Pierce and Robert Carlyle.?It takes place a bit before the heyday of the Wild West, but it's got the right spirit along with some good pacing, a couple of manic characters, humor, terror, and a great feel. Just a nasty piece of work.?
Do you want a direct sequel to 'Prometheus'? No, I don't mean 'Covenant'
Yes, we got 'Alien: Covenant,' a story that picks up with the artificial human David some years after he sets down on a rain-filled planet. It's a decent sequel to?Prometheus, which is?better than a lot of people give it credit for — but it's not a direct?sequel. I was really looking forward to more of Noomi Rapace's Elizabeth Shaw, and, if everyone were up for it, a new entry could certainly squeeze her back into the narrative and have her and David explore more planets before they land on?Origae-6 and follow her doomed path from explorer to lab subject. A miniseries or a short movie is all we would need, and the characters of Shaw and David are strong enough that we don't really need much from the Xenomorphs. Anyone down for this? Oh, and please give me more David stories either way.
Would you watch a 'Nosferatu' sequel or prequel?
Despite being around for 104 years or so, there's never been a proper sequel to any proper?Nosferatu?film (I'm not getting into all the weird, little stuff that's been made over the years). This despite the?huge?number of versions of Dracula.?Now that it's a qualified hit at the box office after establishing a strong world and vision, you sort of have to wonder if it would be possible to make a sequel, prequel, or any kind of spin off from the 2024 version by Robert Eggers. Do I think it would happen? Probably not. Doesn't seem like Eggers' style. Do I think it would be a "good" idea? Not really. Narratively, a prequel is certainly possible, but?Nosferatu?said what it was going to say. It doesn't need to do more. Would I watch a Robert Eggers-directed,?Bill Skarsg?rd-starring second movie if it happened to come out. Yes, 100%
SPOILERS: What the heck just happened in the ‘Silo’ Season 2 finale?!
OK, time to break down the Silo Season 2 finale: ???????? ?????! After the events of “Into the Fire,” there’s a lot to unpack — but the biggest revelation is about the Safeguard. We finally learn (well, most of) what it is, as Juliette returns and the rebels successfully seize control of Silo 18’s upper levels. This move directly challenges Bernard’s unwavering belief in his power and what that means for the silo. However, our heroine’s fate remains unclear after her tense confrontation with Bernard in the incinerator. Is she alive? And what about Bernard? Meanwhile, the finale’s final minutes take us back to pre-apocalypse Washington D.C., where Congressman Daniel (Ashley Zukerman) and The Post reporter Helen (Jessica Henwick) appear to be on a date. But soon, we realize there’s much more to it — the pair discusses a radiological attack by Iran or another foreign threat, which links them both to the creation of the silos and hints at a far-reaching conspiracy. With subtle references l
Anyone else obsessed with the ‘Better Man’ soundtrack as much as I am?
From the score to the songs Robbie Williams remastered, the soundtrack for Better Man is just brilliant. Of course, Michael Gracey’s film is?one of the most creative and inventive biopics in recent memory, but the music takes it to another level.?Having been blessed to grow up with Williams’ music from his?Take That?days to his solo career, I can’t help but appreciate how the songs take on new meanings amid the film’s context. The way each scene juxtaposes the performer’s past and present through the music opens up layers of emotional depth that amplify its meaning. For me, one of the standout tracks was?“Feel”. It's a song that’s always had a lot of personal weight for me, but in this movie, it’s become something entirely different. The scene when the younger Robbie sings it — it’s simply, wow. It beautifully breaks down his vulnerability as a child and his struggles with feeling understood. But then when you hear the adult Robbie, you realize how much growth and pain he’s gone throu
What movie are you most excited to see at Sundance this year?
Sundance 2025 is just a few days away, and this year's lineup looks truly phenomenal. With films featuring actors like Olivia Colman, Josh O'Connor, Benedict Cumberbatch, Dev Patel, Ayo Edebiri, Chlo? Sevigny, Rose Byrne, and many more, it's sure to be a star-studded time. Some of the films I'm most excited to see include?Andrew Ahn's The Wedding Banquet, starring?Lily Gladstone and Bowen Yang, and?Katarina Zhu's Bunnylovr,?whose supporting cast includes Rachel Sennott. On the documentary side, Speak, Middletown, and?Mr. Nobody Against Putin piqued my interest. What films are you most looking forward to at the festival this year?
Who would you like to see grace ‘The Graham Norton Show’ red couch?
After Conan O’Brien, one of my favorite talk show hosts is Graham Norton! Not only is he a genius when it comes to asking the most entertaining and insightful questions, but he also has a natural, genuine chemistry with his guests that makes every episode both exciting and hilarious. Recently, Norton told This Morning that he’d love to have Brad Pitt on the show. After years of hoping for Julia Roberts, he finally got her on the couch for Season 31, alongside Tom Hanks, Timothée Chalamet, and the legendary Cher. If Norton does manage to land Pitt, who would you love to see him paired with? And if you’re not a fan of Pitt, who would you want to see on the beloved red couch instead? Moreover, if you are not a fan of Pitt, who would you like to see that has never before been on the show?
After his 'Deadpool & Wolverine' cameo, who should Henry Cavill play in the MCU?
Henry Cavill seems down to move on from all the DC stuff and Warner Bros. seems?very?down to never work with him again. He's got a lot of things brewing, but we all know that — if he's into it — he would put it all on hold for the right MCU role. So, what's it gonna be? A second go as?Cavillrine? Could be cool, but I think he'd be good elsewhere, too. Cyclops, the?real?Doctor Doom (don't tell me they're gonna use Robert Downey Jr. the whole time), a new Magneto, Mr. Sinister, Mephisto, Ghost Rider — there's a lot of ways this could go here. Got any more? ?
